Louisiana, 4 lakes, measured by LDEQ
Tangipahoa Parish County holds 4 monitored lakes. With a sample that small the county-level summary describes those specific waters, not necessarily every water body in the county. The 4 monitored lakes in Tangipahoa Parish County carry whatever clarity, phosphorus, and chlorophyll-a readings LDEQ has published, shown as reported.
